FAQs
What type of playing surface are these boots suitable for?
These adidas Predator Elite Tongue FG boots are specifically designed for use on firm ground (FG) natural grass pitches.
What is HybridTouch material?
HybridTouch is adidas's next-generation synthetic suede and foil combo. It's engineered to provide lightweight comfort, excellent support, and a natural feel for the ball, enhancing your overall game.
Is it normal for the orange color on the soleplate to wear off?
Yes, it is completely normal. The lacquer finish on the bottom of the soleplate is cosmetic and is expected to wear off during play. This will not affect the performance or durability of the boots.
How do the Strikeskin rubber fins help with ball control?
The Strikeskin rubber fins are strategically placed on the upper to provide increased grip and purchase on the ball. This allows for greater precision, swerve, and power when striking, passing, or controlling the ball.
Are these boots made with recycled materials?
Yes, these adidas Predator Elite Tongue FG boots are made in part with recycled materials, contributing to more sustainable product creation.
What is the benefit of the foldover tongue?
The foldover tongue, designed to be slightly larger, contributes to a more integrated fit and feel, enhancing the connection between your foot and the boot for improved ball control and a clean striking surface.
Troubleshooting
Boots feel too tight or uncomfortable.
Ensure you have the correct size. The boots are a 'regular fit,' but a short break-in period might be needed. Wear them for short periods initially to allow the HybridTouch upper and Primeknit collar to adapt to your foot shape. If discomfort persists, re-check sizing.
Poor grip or slipping on the pitch.
Confirm you are playing on a firm ground (FG) natural grass pitch. These boots are not designed for artificial turf, soft ground, or extremely wet conditions, which can reduce traction. Clean the soleplate thoroughly to ensure no mud or debris is stuck between the studs, impeding grip.
The orange coating on the soleplate is peeling or wearing off.
This is a known characteristic of the product. The lacquer finish on the soleplate is cosmetic and designed to wear off during normal use. It will not affect the performance, durability, or structural integrity of the boots.
Difficulty getting the boot on.
Ensure the laces are fully loosened, especially around the Primeknit collar. Use the pull tabs (if available) to help guide your foot into the boot. The Primeknit collar is designed for a snug fit, which may require a bit of effort initially.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup
- Lace Up Securely: Unlace the boots sufficiently, slide your foot in, and ensure your heel is comfortably seated. Fasten the laces tightly but not restrictively, ensuring an even pressure across your foot. The lace closure combined with the foldover tongue provides a snug, personalized fit.
- Adjust the Tongue: Position the foldover tongue securely over the laces, utilizing its strap if present, for a clean strike zone and integrated feel.
Compatibility
- Firm Ground (FG): These boots are specifically designed for use on natural grass firm ground pitches. The stud configuration of the ControlFrame 2.0 soleplate is optimized for maximum traction and stability on dry to slightly damp natural surfaces.
- Avoid Other Surfaces: Using these boots on artificial grass (AG), turf (TF), or indoor (IN) surfaces is not recommended as it can damage the studs, reduce performance, and potentially void any warranty.
Care
- Cleaning After Each Use: After every match or training session, remove excess dirt and mud from the boots using a soft brush or cloth. For stubborn dirt, use a damp cloth and mild soap.
- Air Dry: Always allow your boots to air dry naturally at room temperature. Avoid direct sunlight or artificial heat sources (like radiators), as these can damage the materials and adhesives.
- Remove Insole: If possible, remove the insoles to allow both the boots and insoles to dry thoroughly, preventing odor and bacterial growth.
- Storage: Store your boots in a cool, dry place away from direct heat or humidity to maintain their shape and material integrity.
- Lacquer Wear: Please note that the lacquer finish on the bottom of the boot's soleplate may wear off during play. This is a normal cosmetic change and will not affect the performance or durability of the product.
